Surprisingly, Rockstar have now added BattlEye anti-cheat to Grand Theft Auto V / GTA Online, and sadly it seems they have not enabled the support for Linux desktop and Steam Deck with Valve's Proton. ARTICLE UPDATED.

    If you can’t play online might as well pirate it

    BattleEye can’t stop scripting mod hacks in any other game I’ve ever played using it and that’s the number one kind of cheat used in GTA V. 🤦‍♂️

    I’m glad I never played GTA V for the multiplayer. The load times were enough to make me lose interest.

      That was apparently a JSON handling bug.

          I did like the racing in the game but the load time was too unbearable. I think I only logged like three hours into GTA online before I dropped it completely.

    I wonder if online play will actually be tolerable now.

    So I wonder what my copy from rockstar will do now, it worked like a week ago under wine(single player). I bought it before it was available on steam unfortunately.

    That said gta online was never good so idgaf about that part but Battle eye isnt going to do shit so sucks for those that do care.
